Ali Baba Mausoleum

Ali Baba Mausoleum

Ali Baba Mausoleum is located in the east of Tire, within the boundaries of Boynuyoğun Village, in the place called Ali Baba Mausoleum . It is also interesting in terms of plan arrangement. It is a plastered structure consisting of two parts, with an octagonal meddal in the front, and an octagonal body covered by a dome resting on a high rim. It is in the form of a building community consisting of various spaces within a regular garden and outside the tomb building. The tomb is in the form of a complex in which various religious duties are performed in addition to worshiping and in which the tombs of various Bektashi fathers (Hasan Baba etc.) are located. It is located on a land of approximately 15,000 square meters. It is an important dervish center in Western Anatolia with its water spring, well, trees and pool. While Ali Baba Mausoleum was previously in the Greek village of Fota, which was named Gökçen, this lodge, which was built in the name of Tire's son Ali Baba in the 16th century, consists of many units.
